Illusts. 3 or 4 ond 13A.
Note: It is recommended that the clutch lever be placed in the forward or engaged position when the tractor is being used with- out front power
ADJUSTINGTHE CLUTCH
The clutch is factory adjusted and should not require further adjustment under normal
operating conditions. However, if clutch slippage should occur. It is recommended
that you see your International Harvester
dealer for satisfactory servicing of the clutch,
as special equipment and instructions are
required.
After considerable clutch use, it may be necessary to readjust the button clearance as described below to assure proper clutch dis-
engagement.
With the clutch fully engaged (clutch lever in the forward position) place a piece of thin cardboard (match book cover) approximately 1/64 inch thick between the engaging lever wear button IIAII and the pressure spring thrust button IIBII (1IIust. 13), loosen the jam nut
on the turnbuckle lIC't(1IIust. 13A),and adjust the turnbuckle until a light drag is felt on the cardboard when it is removed from between the buttons. Be sure all slack, except the 1/64 inch adjustment, is out of the linkage. Then, tighten the jam nut securely against the
turnbuckle.
INSTALLINGAND REMOVINGDRIVE BELT
To install or remove the drive belt, loosen the clutch lever bolt enough so the lever can be moved forward to provide sufficient belt clearance between the engaging lever wear button "A" and the pressure spring thrust button "B", s..lllust.13.
After installing a new belt, move the clutch lever back onto the clutch lever latch and tighten the bolt. SeeIllust. 13.
